Comment from skip ward
I can't believe it--a poet actually wrote about lint--and made it work. I recall the TV commercial where an Aussie opens a heavy, solid door by smacking it with his head. Then a voice says, "Australian locksmith." I could swear I heard a voice say, "Australian fun." This poem happens to be very good.

You are about the fourth person to say words to this effect! LOL Thanks so much and I take that as a complete compliment. A friend apparently thought I could make lint sound interesting. Being the daredevil I am, I quite simply had to have a go. Thanks for an equally as entertaining review and so glad you enjoyed my fluff.
Cheers closet
Comment from djsaxon
Well here's a little ditty,
that I find extremely witty.
After 'lingers' I would love,
to see a little dot (.)
Puts the stress on "I now own" and that would mean a lot.
LOL
You are some piece of work. Lint? Holy shit! And I was beginning to think that I was out there! The use of the very clever rhyme is sensational and the cadence rocks. You always hit my sense of humour where it lives, P.
Cop a sixer and like it! xoxo

Comment from waihekebach
A very entertaining poem.
The rhyme is wonderful closet.
It never ceases to amaze me that a poem can be created out of a virtual void.
I can see the beauty of the lint in the picture but the belly is something else.
Some very clever wording too.
Great effort.

This is priceless Closet! Such clever wording and most thought-provoking! I see someone went for a world record for gathering the stuff...some people will collect anything! Great wording and rhyme. Giddy

Haha, thanks Giddy. This was inspired by an "almost dare" by a fan who seemed to think I may have an original slant on lint. Hmmm...perhaps I did...seems many can relate to this delightful fluff! LOL
Cheers and thanks so much.

Comment from Kaine Darcwater
A poem about belly button lint is likely the most strange piece I have ever read. I am quite sure that there are others, but this is my first. Thing is it oddly works well. We all seem to collect that little ball of fabric in our belly buttons. How does it get there when body hair covers the belly button hole? An enigma. Kudos. ;)

Indeed Bryan, an enigma...one of those delightful little happenstances that we simply can't explain...I must say too this IS the strangest write I have done by way of content but I'm happy to go out on a limb for some poetic fluff! LOL...I just like my stuff to be light and fun...
Loved your review, thanks so much and have a great day.

Comment from Carrie Smith
Closet, write about lint you have indeed done. Maybe a bit too much TMI for those who protest that it does exist, but should not be mentioned. Oh yes, they're out there. Funny, funny. Loved the line "Better check your levels" ! Well, I truly hope your belly button is not too much worse - the one in the picture is pretty well endowed! Enjoyable, my friend. xxSusan

Haha, thanks Carrie...yes far TMI for some...I no longer care...they will either tune out once they see pic or dump me in the non review pile at the end or part way through the read...thing is ... we ALL got lint! Some just can't acknowledge the stuff I guess. Bahahaha Thanks for a superb review.
Cheers closet xo
Comment from the blue pixel
Where did you get this very old picture of me when I was very pregant? lol No kidding. I found a little stone in my belly button but FLUFF? That's a new one on me Closet. This poem speeds along at a rate of knots. Great internal rhymes like "dregs, on trouser legs", "balls of fluff", "pesky stuff", "flocks and socks" and every first stanza line is consistently clever in this regard. I can't help but feel the "yuk" factor which is a direct result of your inimitable way with words. One small suggestion Clo.
I think I would have made an enjambment between your last line, second stanza as "balls of fluff" follows the thought "Cling-ons are deploying balls of fluff" but I think you are going for capital letter at the start of each line. Otherwise, flawless as per usual. xxx Pix
